Re: [Xen-users] Building 3.2.1

Hello List,

 I am trying to build Xen 3.2.1 with the linux-2.6.18-xen-3.2.0.tar.gz
downloaded from http://xen.org/download/. Do I need to install mecurial to
get this to work?


Ok, here is what I did to get this to work without mercurial. I downloaded the two files from above then I untarred both into /var/xen/. I then cd into the buildconfigs directory and edited the 'src.hg-clone' and commented out the mercurial piece and added a symlink. Here is the portion that has the symlink with the whole file cut-and-pasted below:


$(LINUX_SRCDIR)/.valid-src: $(__XEN_LINUX_UPDATE)
        ln -snf linux-2.6.18-xen-3.2.0 linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
        touch $@

Then back up one directory into the xen-3.2.1 directory and issue the 'make world' 'make install'.

Hope that helps someone else,

Jon
